@criminographer Beautiful. Mindful and magical.
Almost 5 years on and mine is to bake for his brothers like when I had 4 little boys helping.
It still brings our family together.
Food is our glue.

@criminographer Beautiful pictures. Your children held in your heart always.
We lost our 18yo 4 years ago.
Each timeline brings fresh, unbidden, challenge.
Praying we are both granted the strength to carry this weight and some moments of peace along the way.
Their time here was not enough.
@mathsjem Love this post! But beware if ‘pasting’ data into a filtered spreadsheet in this way online. It pastes into the ‘unseen’ cells and replaces someone else’s data. Drove my dept nuts! Love to hear a hack for this!
@hurricaneteach@TeachLeadAAli But the volume of work we generate has increased, the the output volume increases. Just because you ‘queue’ it for a few hours down the line does not decrease the volume.
The volume has increased be wise we are working too many hours. At whatever time of the day / evening
@TeachLeadAAli Please be mindful.
We are ALL working so hard.
If HT, SLT and others work reasonable hours the amount of work being asked of others is reasonable too.
Working to 9.30pm to ‘queue’ emails to send at 8am is unreasonable and unsustainable.
We need to rethink to prevent burn out.
@MathsNot How about making functions skills maths more available (and acceptable to have) for those struggling to obtain a grade “4” and having to resit until their 18 (many still not “passing”…)
@ellielexx So sorry for the loss of your boy as one grieving mum to another. My son was 18, different circumstances entirely. The time here is not nearly enough. Treasure each ‘thing’’, knowing that he was here and was very loved. Sitting with you as you sort through the ripples of life. X
@JimPGrady@tombennett71 I’d want someone to know enough so EVERY student learns SOMETHING every lesson, not the other way round. EVERY student deserves the best we can give them.
